... The process that a DJ goes through when they are mixing is a process called beat matching. Beat matching is a very complex process and takes an extreme amount of practice. The process includes about sixteen steps, but can be described in four steps: play one record on the turntable and listen to other record in the headphones, “grab the beat” of one record and release it on beat with the other record using the pitch control, analyze then re-analyze the two records, and finally blend the two records using the cross-fader. ... It also allows you to start the main step in the beat matching process. Once you have selected the record you want to play next you must match the beat to the record that is playing out of the main sound system. The way to do is by “grabbing the beat” of the record in the headphones and releasing it with the record playing. Almost all records are produced with a four/four beat for easier mixing. “Grabbing the beat,” means to use your hand on the record and move it back and forth with beat of the record playing.
